It is an unfortunate name for a small business that makes pens. Any pen can kill but I needed one that would make me cry if I lost it. At least I won't have to worry about constantly breaking the clip off or someone breaking the pen itself on a flight line....picking up all the small pieces of broken plastic is no fun.

If Karas Customs wasn't on your list it should be. I just got a similar Ti pen from them (it's my 8th pen from them) and love their products. All designed and machined in the USA.

Latest purchase was a new headlamp and the last cam to finish out my rack.

I go through a pen a week. I sign between 300 and 500 business checks a week depending on the season plus all kinds of other documents. My signature is consistent. If however, I’m writing out something else like a note or a greeting card, my cursive sucks. The struggle is real.

Get off my lawn.

You know, they came out with this invention awhile back, you may have heard of it, maybe not, but they have stamps you can use that have your signature.

Also. You can get on my lawn anytime.

Jesus. Is that what you call it? A "lawn"?

Yeah, you know like Lumen Field, home of the NFL Seattle Seahawks? Led by former Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson?

Well, my lawns also measured starting in yards, just like Lumen.

Me no like. I trust those that work for me but I want to sign checks and control what is going out. No one is rubber stamping money leaving my companies.

Alright masochist. Then I shall recommend these two pens for those who sign a metric fuck ton of checks. Grey one is Pilot G2 and the red ink one is pentel? I'm picky about writing utensils.

I've switched from the G2 to a TUL gel.

Uhmmm. Is this one of those things where I have to show respect to my elders and pretend to lose so you'll feel better?

My daughter turns her paper, so she is writing in a up - down motion, instead of writing left - right. That way she doesn't smear. I never mastered that technique.

You got PART of it right anyway, I demand respect.

Interesting, me neither. This is where a "traditional" Japanese method would be handy for lefties. They write from right-to-left and up-and-down.
